About Jérôme Cigut

I have been telling stories since I started to talk, and writing them down since I learned the letters, but it’s only recently that I’ve stopped being so serious that I wouldn’t show them to anyone. In 2010, I won New Scientist‘s Flash Fiction competition with Atomic Dreams, an alternate history about Nikola Tesla.

I was born in France but half of my family originally comes from Central Europe. I write in English and French, and I can occasionally understand Russian and Mandarin. After a few spells in Dublin, New York and London, I’ve been living in Hong Kong since 2012.
